Brahmananda
Swami Brahmananda (January 21, 1863 - April 10, 1922) was born in Sikra near Kolkota. His pre-monastic name was Rakhal Chandra Ghosh. He was a close relative of Swami Vivekananda. Shri Ramakrishna recognised him as his 'spiritual son'. He became the first president of the Ramakrishna Mission. Known as 'Raja Maharaj', he was largely responsible for the initial development of Ramakrishna Mission, which was in sorrow due to untimely death of Swami Vivekananda.
